Unable to launch Android Emulator

I am using Netbeans 8.1 and android-sdk for Linux, without a GPU. When I run my project, or when trying to Start the emulator, I am getting:

Starting emulator for AVD 'MG'
emulator: WARNING: VM heap size set below hardware specified minimum of 256MB
emulator: WARNING: Setting VM heap size to 512MB
emulator: ERROR: GPU emulation is disabled.
Only screen size of 768 X 1280 or smaller is supported when GPU emulation is disabled.

The Details are:

AVD emulator

Any ideas please?


Edit:

Same behavior if I try from cmd with:

gsamaras@gsamaras-A15:~/android-sdk-linux/tools$ ./emulator -avd MG

Your error is clearly stating that

Only screen size of 768 X 1280 or smaller is supported when GPU emulation is disabled.

As I can see in the image you have attached you are using virtual Nexus 5 in your MG AVD which has 1080 x 1920 screen size.

Change your hardware profile to Nexus 4 or create custom AVD having resolution 768 x 1280 or less.
